1.- If using fresh or previously frozen shrimp then rinse, devein, peel shell off and take tail off. Place in a large enough stock pot with water and cook for 15 minutes or until completely pink. While the shrimp is cooking chop all the vegetables into tiny pieces, except the avocado that should be cut into 1/2 inch squares.*

2.- Rinse shrimp in ice cold water so they stop cooking. Place all vegetables in a large bowl and mix. Juice key limes.
